Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of blood collection auxiliary devices, and specifically relates to a blood collection auxiliary device. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of medical blood collection, smart blood collection pillows are widely used as auxiliary devices to support patients' hands during blood collection. During blood collection, a tourniquet is an indispensable tool used to temporarily block venous blood flow, allowing for clearer visualization of blood vessels and facilitating the blood collection procedure. Furthermore, tourniquets are designed for single use only to prevent cross-infection. However, existing smart blood collection pillows on the market currently have significant functional shortcomings.

[0003] Chinese patent application CN206102689U discloses a disposable tourniquet extractor and its automatic paper-changing pad assembly for blood collection. The hand-operated tourniquet in this device requires force to break during use. This forces nurses to spend extra time and effort obtaining the tourniquet when collecting blood from patients, increasing the number of steps and posing a risk of the tourniquet failing to break, thus severely impacting work efficiency. Furthermore, the tourniquet requires pre-cutting every 30cm, which undoubtedly increases the production process and restricts flexibility in adjusting the tourniquet length. From a manufacturing perspective, the pre-cutting not only increases production costs but also, due to its fixed length, makes it difficult to meet the personalized needs of different patients. In actual blood collection scenarios, patients vary in body shape and vascular condition, resulting in different requirements for tourniquet length. Secondly, its disposable tourniquet extractor uses a tray installed on the bottom plate of a drawer box to hold the tourniquet roll. While the drawer box design facilitates storage to some extent, the inconvenience during replacement and the risk of jamming become major obstacles to its application. Furthermore, the device has significant shortcomings in its overall structural design; it occupies a considerable amount of space and lacks compactness, which greatly reduces its convenience when used in blood collection stations.

[0028] The following examples will further illustrate the features of this utility model and other related features in detail, so as to enable those skilled in the art to understand them.

[0029] like Figures 1-9 As shown, to achieve the above objectives, this novel experimental design employs the following technical solutions:

[0030] (I) Assembly and Initial State of the Device

[0031] Install the first motor 51, the second motor 41, and the third motor 31 in their respective positions within the main body 1 of the device. Connect the cutting mechanism components, such as the first screw 52, ​​the sliding block 53, the guide rail 54, the cutter 55, and the cutter holder 56, according to the aforementioned connection relationship. Connect the belt drive pulley 42, the belt driven pulley 43, the second spiral rod 44, and a series of gears and rotating bodies, as well as the pressure belt feeding mechanism components. Install the first roll 32, the second roll 33, and the various guide rollers and pressure rollers, as well as the pillowcase feeding mechanism components. Place the pressure belt roll in the pressure belt unwinding cavity 104 and fix it with the column 107. Roll the unused pillowcase onto the second roll 33, ensuring that all components are securely installed and accurately positioned. At this point, the device is in its initial ready-to-use state.

[0032] (II) Pillowcase feeding process

[0033] When a blood collection pillowcase is needed, the third motor 31 is started, which drives the first drum 32 to rotate. Unused pillowcases on the second drum 33 are conveyed to the blood collection platform 2 by passing through the pressure roller 37, the fourth guide roller 36, and the third guide roller 35 in sequence. After blood collection is completed, the used pillowcase is recycled back to the first drum 31 through the second guide roller 35, realizing the automatic feeding and recycling cycle of the pillowcase.

[0034] (III) Feeding and Cutting Process of Pressure Belt

[0035] The second motor 41 is started, which drives the belt drive pulley 42 to rotate, which in turn drives the belt driven pulley 43, the second screw rod 44, and a series of gears to rotate, ultimately causing the first rotating body 49 to rotate. The pressure belt 101 is output from the pressure belt unwinding chamber 104 and outward through the first guide roller 105 by the frictional force with the first rotating body 49. During the output process, when the pressure belt 101 is output into the opening 57, the second rotating body 40, under the action of the rotating element 412 and the first spring 413, generates a clamping force that cooperates with the first rotating body 49 to clamp the pressure belt 101, ensuring stable output of the pressure belt.

[0036] When the pressure band reaches the set length, the first motor 51 is activated. The first motor 51 drives the sliding block 53 to slide on the guide rail 54, converting the rotational motion into the linear reciprocating motion of the cutter 55. The cutter 55 cuts the pressure band through the opening 57 on the cutter holder 56. The first motor 51 is a stepper motor, which can precisely control the moving distance of the cutter 55 to ensure accurate cutting position.

[0037] (iv) Material replenishment and replacement

[0038] When the unused pillowcases on the second roll 33 are about to run out or need to be replaced with a different type of pillowcase, medical staff can perform the following operations: First, press button 64 to compress the second spring 63, causing the hook 61 to disengage from the slot 62, thereby opening the cover 11. Next, install a new pillowcase roll on the second roll 33, ensuring that the starting end of the pillowcase can smoothly connect with the fourth guide roller 36. If any used pillowcase rolls on the first roll 32 need to be cleaned or replaced, they can be removed and disposed of properly. Finally, close the cover 11, the hook 61 re-engages into the slot 62, and the device can continue to feed pillowcases normally.

[0039] When the remaining amount of pulse belt material in the unwinding chamber 104 is low or when it is necessary to replace it with a pulse belt of a different specification, follow these steps: First, open the cover 11 and remove an empty pulse belt core (if available). Then, roll the new pulse belt onto the column 107, ensuring that one end of the pulse belt can be smoothly drawn out from the first guide roller 105. During installation, ensure that the pulse belt roll is securely installed on the column 107, with its hexagonal bottom structure tightly fitting against the bottom of the column. Use the protrusions to increase friction and prevent the pulse belt roll from slipping during rotation. Then close the cover 11 to allow for normal feeding and use of the pulse belt.

[0040] In summary, this blood collection auxiliary device, through its unique structural design and the collaboration between its various mechanisms, effectively solves many inconveniences and hygiene hazards inherent in traditional blood collection processes. Its blood collection pillowcase feeding mechanism enables automatic cyclical laying and recycling of the pillowcase, ensuring the cleanliness of the blood collection platform and patient comfort; the tourniquet feeding and cutting mechanism accurately outputs and cuts tourniquets of appropriate length, greatly improving the convenience and accuracy of blood collection operations.

[0041] Of particular note is that the main body 1 of this device includes a cover 11 and a base 12. The latching assembly 6 between the two has a simple and compact structure. The hook part 61, the slot part 62, the first spring 63, and the button 64 enable convenient opening and closing. The cover design greatly facilitates operation by medical staff. When it is necessary to replenish materials or inspect, clean, or repair internal components, simply press the button, compress the spring to disengage the hook part from the slot part, and the cover can be easily opened. For example, during the replacement of pillowcases or compression bandages, medical staff can quickly open the device, accurately install new materials and dispose of old materials, and then conveniently close the cover, allowing the device to quickly return to normal operation, greatly improving work efficiency. The base has a pillowcase unwinding cavity 103 and a compression bandage unwinding cavity 104 arranged from left to right. This partitioned layout makes reasonable use of the internal space of the base. The pillowcase feeding mechanism 3 cleverly utilizes the internal space of the device body 1. For example, the third motor 31 is installed in a position that does not occupy too much horizontal or vertical space. The first roll 32 and the second roll 33 are installed through the support 13 connected to the bottom of the cover 1. This layout effectively controls the space occupied by the rolls in the vertical direction. The blood collection platform 2 is located at a suitable position on the top of the device, and its size is just right to meet the patient's arm placement needs. It is neither too large to waste space nor too small to affect the comfort of blood collection operations. This combination makes the overall device more compact and reduces the space occupied, making it perfectly adaptable to various blood collection station usage scenarios. Whether in a small clinic with limited space or in a large hospital blood collection area with a more compact equipment layout, it can be easily installed and operate efficiently. All technical solutions that are the same as or similar to this case should be considered to fall within the protection scope of this case.
